Don't leave me alone after midnight
Even before midnight, even before midnight
I'm afraid of the dark, there we have it
but that's embarrassing... so embarrassing
The monster that comes out of the closet
The shadows that are getting there
That's nothing but a mirage
That's my dark thoughts
Don't turn off the light
Close the door, come close to me
Really close to me
Tell me stories
Tell me jokes
But don't mock me/it, don't mock me/it...
The ghost under the bed
The weird suspicious noises
That's nothing but a mirage, that's my dark thoughts
Don't leave me alone
Don't turn off the light
Come close to me, really close to me
I'm afraid of the dark, there we have it
but don't mock me/it, don't mock me/it...
